FLOOR MAT POSITIONING PINS
Positioning pins are attached to three of the
floor mats. The cargo mat and front mats do
not have pins. However, the front floor mats
each have a grommet which is placed overthe floor mat positioning brackets located at
the base of the front seats.
Push the positioning pins into the seat
tracks to ensure correct installation, then
straighten the mats as necessary.
The step mat has holes in addition to pins.
When the mats are arranged properly, the
positioning pins of the two mats on either
side of the step mat should fit through the
holes in the step mat and into the seat track.
WARNING
cNo occupant should ride in a vehicle
seat unless it is in a normal riding
arrangement and the seat belts are
properly used.
cWhile driving, never allow anyone to
ride in the cargo area. It is not de-
signed for passengers. They could
be injured in sudden braking or
collision.
cTo prevent luggage or packages
from sliding forward during braking,
do not stack anything in the cargo
area higher than the seatbacks.cFailure to follow proper seating in-
structions in this section could re-
sult in serious personal injury in an
accident or during a sudden stop.

WITH SECOND ROW BENCH
SEAT
The most common seating arrangement for
seven passengers is with the three-
passenger bench seat in seating position
#1. This provides more leg room for the
passengers sitting in the third row.When more cargo area room is necessary,
the three-passenger sliding bench seat can
be moved to seating position #2. This seat-
ing arrangement provides less leg room for
third row passengers, but more cargo area
room.The fold-down tabletop seats in the second
and third rows provide a surface for eating
or playing games on long trips.

there are no rear seat passengers, the
second row seat can be removed and the
